I made these grits for my boyfriend when we were first dating. He was born & raised in the South and likes to tease me for being a "damn Yankee" ... When he tasted them, his face lit up and he said ..."WOW! This Yankee can cook Southern style!" ... nearly two years later, he still talks about and asks for these grits!

My 89 year old mother asks me to make this recipe every time I come to visit. I halve the recipe and make it in a non-stick skillet. This recipe is so good! Very good reheated the next day. I have found that I do not need to proof the eggs if I first mix them in with the milk and add them after I put in the cheese and butter.
